View and comment on planning applications

You do not need to have received a letter from us or even live near the application site to comment on a planning application, anyone can send us their comments. We encourage you to view the submitted plans and forms before you comment on an application.

Make a comment using our online form (find the application, then use the comment link)

View important dates, plans, supporting documents and the decision notice

Track the progress of an application

Only applications that have been made ‘valid’ (i.e. contain all the required documents, fee and a complete application form) will be shown on our website. If a recent application is not shown it may not be valid.

Data Protection

Please note that legally we must allow the public to see any comments we receive about planning applications. This means that we cannot treat any comments as confidential.

Other ways to view applications and submit comments

Current applications can also be viewed in hard copy (known as the Planning Register) at Ty Dewi Sant, St. Davids Park, Ewloe, CH5 3XT.(8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday). 5 working days notice is required if you wish to view details of a non-current application (i.e. where a decision has been made) please telephone 01352 703331. Copies of decision notices or photocopies of application documents can be purchased at reception. Weekly lists of applications received and decided can also be viewed.

If you need to discuss your interest in a planning application in detail please make a prior appointment. Simple queries, however, can often be dealt with by phone on the above number.
